As a troll from Michigan's LP I love the change to Coraline's origin. I feel like my home state doesn't get enough recognition in media. I also like the addition of Wybie.
Watching this after just finishing the book. I love your channel! Filming, editing, movie/book comparison, everything! So glad to have stumbled upon it.
I think it's funny because in the book, the POINT is that the snowglobes are the only thing that doesn't exist in her world and that's how she figured it out, but in the film there's a bunch of them in the real world so they reversed that plot point. I don't know if i like it or not, but it amuses me
@@lexieslibrary yeah, i think cinema relies more heavily on set and payoff and in a book every word written is noticeable but in a film not every background or shot is. I think it's not necessarily a bad choice to change it
Well remembered. Beldam nowadays is associated with an 'old, especially ugly woman or witch' it used to be a term used for a grandmother. You could even trace it back to the french term 'belle dame' which would translate to 'beautiful woman', not sure about when the shift happened, but I think it was linked to a poem that was written about 200 years ago? You might want to fact check this part. :)
Honestly both the book and the movie are startlingly creepy! 😅 I think if I was a child experiencing either for the first time I would have had nightmares
I love Coraline, the movie is fantastic. However I still haven't read the book yet, I know I have too. Maybe somebody will get me to book for a birthday present in July. Anyway I was hoping that there would have been a part 2 or a sequel to Coraline.
im not going to say that i hate the changed the setting to oregan rather than england they did that that cause henry selick didn't feel comfortable writing outiside of what he knew but as someone who likes english tv shows it was a bit sad for me
Don’t forget Coraline calling Wybie “Why were you born” for extra mean points haha

If you loved this book you'll love "The graveyard book" by Neil Gaiman. You should review that too!

Agreed! It felt smarter in the book for some reason, but I didn't hate the change for the movie

wish there was a time stamp to the actual comparison
It is beldame in the book bedlam is like chaos but they’re pretty close to anagrams so that’s understandable
I absolutely love the movie but haven't read the book yet. My daughter has been a huge fan of the movie too!
They're definitely very similar but if you're a fan of Neil Gaiman's writing voice I recommend it!
I am so glad for a detailed review because I think even this would still creep me out to not read it xD

If I had a nickel for every time Keith David played a cat, I'd have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
